Think that's it for the day now. Didn't take a direct hit thunder wise, but had some biblical rain, and also some deep, distant rumbles as well. That being said, it would be wrong of me to complain about it all being distant, it has been a great 2017, and I know others haven't been quite so lucky.

It's absolutely torrential out there. Hopefully it clears before I get off! Lightning seems to have slowed down though...
Edit: Passed over much quicker than I thought. Didn't see any more lightning but the rain was immense. Some nice CB towers off to the north now though

Rain clearing out now. Only one flash and rumble in the end, but better than nothing. Bit surprising to be fair, I know it was forecast, but it really hasn't felt or looked stormy here at all today.
Edit: Not finished yet. Just had a nice crack of thunder. Didn't see a flash though.

Storm pretty much gone now. If that's it for 2017, then what a way to end the season, incredible couple of hours, certainly will live long in my memory for the closest strike I've ever experienced.
All in all, that's 12 or 13 thunder days for this season, which is an upgrade on last year for sure, had some pretty good storms in that time as well.
Here's to an even better 2018 for us all.
Good night all, and thank you to the Weather Gods. What a way to end summer.
